Chapter 222 Changes, Elite Selection Rules, Complete Inheritance
"First, of course, is war."
Kieran calmly surveyed the assembled wizards and said, "The Crimson Eyes attacked the camp last night, including several important resource points, among which..."
"7
He casually mentioned a few.
The wizards below gasped in shock, for these places were important resource points for the academy.
"Starting tomorrow, the academy's core will shift towards war, internal resource points may shrink, and more responsibilities will be devoted to war. Therefore, many wizards present will have their roles changed."
Ian's gaze also became tense.
Needless to say, the lava crystal mine where he worked also belonged to this category, and he had absolutely no interest in frontline war positions.
This is a war between two academies.
Even at the mid-stage of the first ring, he believed the risk of death would not be low.
He only wanted to steadily improve his talent and strength.
Then Kieran changed the subject, saying, "As for the responsibilities in the war direction, whether it's contribution points or resources, they will be given preferential treatment. Dangerous positions may even receive more than three times the benefits. This is both a crisis and an opportunity for you."
Ian remained uninterested, but the eyes of many of the wizards around him lit up.
"Secondly, it concerns the selection of elite disciples, or rather, the elite sequence," Kieran said again.
Ian listened carefully.
"The so-called elite disciples are actually selected by the academy to identify wizards with more potential. Similar to the previous scholarships, they will be assessed after five years. Those who pass the assessment will receive preferential treatment in terms of academy resources and other support."
"What are the requirements for teacher evaluation?"
El, who was in front, was the first to ask.
Kieran nodded and said, "First, there are the requirements for strength and age. You must be below the late stage of the first ring. Second, your mental energy crystal must be at least 70% condensed, and you must be no more than thirty-five years old."
"Second, war contributions: accumulating at least five thousand standard combat merits."
"Third: Recommendation: Obtain a recommendation from at least one battle group or department."
Ian squinted.
The first requirement is that he can understand it.
But what about the second and third?
Clearly, he wasn't the only one with questions; other wizards soon followed suit.
"War contributions are special contributions during wartime. They can be made by completing a series of tasks that are helpful to the war, such as killing enemy wizards, defending resource points, etc. There are even special war merits, but those require great merits."
"A recommendation means you need to be recommended by at least one core department within the academy, or even a warband. As far as I know, warbands have the most slots this time," Kieran said slowly.
Everyone immediately understood.
It's actually very simple.
This time, the selection of elite disciples, in addition to the requirement of senior wizards, also included the background of war.
Wizards were urged to play a role in this war as much as possible.
Some people also inquired about the specific benefits that elite disciples receive.
Kieran said, "Things may change at any time due to the war, but three things will definitely not change: one resource to advance to the late stage of the first ring, access to the secret realm (you can enter once a year), and third, your access to exchange resources will be upgraded to the same level as the late stage of the first ring."
sizzle!
The wizard, who was unsure of the situation, suddenly had a bright idea.
Ian was also somewhat surprised.
The resources gained from advancing are naturally plentiful, but what's even more surprising is the access to the secret realm, which can only be entered once a year.
He still remembered that the last time he entered, it saved him almost a year.
Doesn't this mean that if he gets this permission, his talent improvement speed can be doubled?
moment.
Ian felt his mouth getting dry.
However, things are not so simple now, because this time the competition is not just with El, but with the entire academy.
Thirty-five years old.
It also includes the previous edition.
Even if the academy might take these factors into account in the final evaluation, it is undoubtedly very difficult.
Furthermore, merits in battle and recommendations from departments or guilds are also required.
These two things are the most troublesome. The Four Symbols Institute is just a branch institute, not really a department.
Join the fray?
Ian immediately rejected the idea; he didn't need to take that risk.
Then you'll have to join another department in the college.
But you need to accumulate merit in battle.
Then it must be a department related to war.
Ian pondered the various departments of the academy, and after a few seconds, he came up with a suitable one.
"Alchemy Department!"
Ian narrowed his eyes slightly.
The Elemental Mysteries naturally have an Alchemy Department, which is one of the most core departments within the academy.
Once war begins.
Crafting alchemical items, repairing damaged magical artifacts, improving standard equipment, and developing targeted alchemical items—these contributions can undoubtedly be converted into considerable "standard combat merits."
The only problem is that he doesn't know any of these.
"However, I have a wizarding lineage, and I still have five years."
Ian squinted.
Moreover, his inheritance contains a large number of talent points, and he needs a lot of practice.
Only the Alchemy Department can meet this requirement.
In addition, he also considered the issue of the various materials he would need to practice different kinds of witchcraft later on.
Ordinary wizards actually have difficulty accessing certain materials, such as the Wind Copper and Scorching Iron Essence that he needs now.
However, he believed that the academy alchemists would certainly have more opportunities to come into contact with them.
Almost instantly, he made his decision.
Just then, Kieran spoke again: "Specific job preferences will be distributed via badges starting tomorrow. You have three days to weigh your options and apply. Remember, your choice must align with your own traits. Once you've made up your mind, you can come find me, especially Al, Ian, and Bren, as you are all under thirty-five and already meet the requirements. Come with me."
Ian?
The mental power of a first-ring wizard is extremely sharp. Upon hearing Ian's name, many wizards looked at Ian in surprise.
That's when Ian's fluctuations seemed to have indeed changed.
Their expressions changed one by one.
Flynn, watching from a distance, was also somewhat surprised, seemingly not expecting Ian to advance so quickly.
Sofia's expression also changed.
Ian was progressing faster than he had imagined, and Al, standing beside him, frowned, realizing he was only a few months behind.
The wizards present were all surprised, but since Kieran was still there, no one spoke.
At this moment, Al, Ian, and Bren had already gotten up and were looking at each other in bewilderment.
Meanwhile, Kieran had already ventured deep into the castle.
The others quickly followed.
Kieran entered a room, and then his voice came out, saying, "One by one, Ian first."
The words fell.
Bren looked at Ian in surprise, while El frowned, clearly indicating that calling first meant receiving more attention.
She advanced earlier.
Is it really because of that damned Four Symbols Resonance Method?
Ian ignored the two and went inside.
Inside, Kieran sat on the sofa, looked at Ian, and asked directly, "At the mid-stage of the First Ring, you can choose a new position. Where do you plan to go?"
"Teacher, how about the Alchemy Department?"
"Ian asked."
"The Alchemy Department?" Kieran raised an eyebrow, a question flashing in his eyes. He had never heard of Ian knowing alchemy.
So Ian told him about the alchemical legacy he had acquired.
"As long as you have confidence, that's good. I have a good relationship with the deputy minister of the Alchemy Department, and I can arrange a position for you there. But it's not easy to earn merits in the Alchemy Department, and secondly, it requires a recommendation from the Alchemy Department. And you're not even an Alchemist yet. Are you sure?"
Kieran usually doesn't interfere with students' decisions, but at this moment he frowned.
The main reason was that Ian's choice left him somewhat puzzled.
"I've made up my mind, teacher."
Ian nodded.
After much thought, the alchemy department is indeed a very good option for him at the moment.
"OK."
Kieran nodded, choosing to believe Ian.
Then he said, "Bring me your heritage."
Ian quickly took out the legacy.
When the black book came into Kieran's hands, he easily opened it, and the prohibitions within had no effect on him whatsoever.
"It has some value, but it's a bit outdated. Didn't you previously have a spot for exchanging knowledge at the mid-stage and early-stage of the first ring? I'll exchange it for a complete first-ring alchemist inheritance from the academy, is that alright?"
Kieran looked up and said.
"Of course, thank you so much, teacher."
Ian's eyes lit up.
He must have made a huge profit.
It's important to know that alchemy is constantly evolving, and secondly, the alchemical tradition of elemental mysteries is definitely more suitable for this place.
"I'll give it to you when I go to the alchemy department later."
Kieran put away the legacy, and Ian didn't feel any heartache at all.
He strode out of there.
Ian nodded to Bren and then walked out.
As soon as I went out.
"Brother Ian, congratulations!"
A familiar voice came from inside.
Flynn had a big smile on his face.
